As a Somatic Counselor, I recognize that our thoughts and emotions are necessarily intertwined with our physiology. Using a family systems and communications lens, I practice constructivist therapy, focusing on the behavioral narrative of children, partners, and families. In my view, there is nothing that is not communicated. Whether or not it is verbalized is another question entirely. With a slowed-down opportunity to explore what's happening inside through experiential activities such as play therapy, Hakomi techniques, art, sandplay, constellation work, etc., it becomes possible to experience a different outcome. Ultimately, new experiences teach our brain new habits, supporting relationships with those we love.

Life difficulties can be challenging - but very positive outcomes can come from facing them. Transformation and healing truly do happen. They come from new experiences and insights, and getting support to try new behaviors in a supportive context. The wholeness of you is capable, unafraid, dynamic and alive - as you get more deeply in touch with your wholeness, things move. Compassion, understanding, and new growth arise.

I am a registered psychotherapist in Colorado and a board-certified art therapist in private practice. I work with children adolescents and adults facing the challenges of depression, PTSD, relationship, communication and body image issues, anxiety, "stuckness," and life transitions.

I work with clients using both verbal psychotherapy and non-verbal methods (art therapy, writing). Clients I have worked with have found art-making, such as collage, painting, drawing, poetry, as well as photography, productive methods to reduce stress, promote self-awareness, and gain insights about themselves. Also, I'm excited to announce that I've added the option of animal-assisted psychotherapy to my practice.
